Would you buy this scope?

To be fair, he did give an opinion on benefits of scope like he had used it, when really he hadn’t and was just repeating what someone else told him.

Sounds like parroting.

I’ve done it too and try not to at this point. I think If everyone here only gave opinions on things they have done themselves it would be a more beneficial place.

I guess I failed, but I tried to make it clear that it was opinion, and not fact. I started my comment with “I’d say”, implying opinion

Dude. No worries. Like I said I’ve done it too. Trying not to anymore. I know you were just trying to help.

No pissing match wanted, it's just hard to see uninformed opinions on a scope that's 6 months from actually being used. As of now, we have 3 samples.... 3, that have been used for less than 2 months. Durability is hardly proven.. Sure LOW " knows how to build a durable scope," but by most accounts this is a new errector system as well.... Hardly proven durable, long term.

Does it appear to be durable? Sure. VERY SMALL sample size tho.

Is the glass "better" than NX6? There might be 20 people in the world that can give an opinion on this.. maybe. Neither scopes are even released yet. Only some samples.

All three scopes have been used this week in temperatures ranging from -1* to 50* without issue. Even at single digit temperatures, the mag, parallax, and elevation turrets have all been excellent, retaining tactile feel and ease of use. Even without knowing subtensions, most shooters have picked up on the reticle’s features (especially the box) quickly and started using them subconsciously.

I find it very interesting Vortex came out with the 4-24 Razor and Night force selects ONLY this power range to not offer in FFP. I would put money on all 3 scopes using the same new 6x erector. How they spec'd out the rest of the scope will be the real difference (coatings, turrets, reticles, durability features, etc). Likely Vortex has the initial exclusive and NF will follow suit in 12-24months with a FFP 4-24. This is a very common practice in other industries.

The 4-24 razor is built on the same bones as the zeiss S3 4-25 and delta stryker 3.5-21. That pedigree has been in the wild for some time.

I feel the reason NF never brought forth a ffp 4-24, it's size, weight, and mag range would directly compete and likely outsell the 4-16, 4-20, 5-25 atacr and 4-28 nx8 models.

What scope ring is that with the bubble level?

Hawkins. Form prefers the NF rings (he can expound on the reasons), but these were what was on hand when this scope got mounted.
